Out of the many unexpected K-pop idols' friendships that keep emerging on the internet, TXT Beomgyu and NCT Chenle's case has been met with surprise and cheer from their respective fandoms.
On February 23, 2023, a fan asked Beomgyu on Weverse whether he had met Chenle yet, to which the TXT member replied with:
"What do they call it, SNS friends? We are totally not just that. We've had more deep conversations than you think. We met and talked when we had overlapping schedules and things keke."
While it's no secret that Beomgyu is a social butterfly with friends from many groups like Stray Kids, ATEEZ, etc., the one with Chenle was quite surprising, especially since there hasn't been much interactions between the two K-pop groups. Along with TXT Beomgyu, Chenle also hinted about his friendship with the former during a live stream, saying:
"We spoke a lot and talked about how much we wanted to meet in a personal setting but we're both really busy so we haven't gotten the chance to meet yet."
